Andrew Christianson updated MINIFI-244:
---------------------------------------
Description:
Create an FocusArchive processor which implements a lens over an archive (tar,
etc.). A concise, though informal, definition of a lens is as follows:
"Essentially, they represent the act of “peering into” or “focusing in on” some
particular piece/path of a complex data object such that you can more precisely
target particular operations without losing the context or structure of the
overall data you’re working with."
https://medium.com/@dtipson/functional-lenses-d1aba9e52254#.hdgsvbraq
Why an FocusArchive in MiNiFi? Simply put, it will enable us to "focus in on"
an entry in the archive, perform processing *in-context* of that entry, then
re-focus on the overall archive. This allows for transformation or other
processing of an entry in the archive without losing the overall context of the
archive.
Initial format support is tar, due to its simplicity and ubiquity.
Attributes:
- Path (the path in the archive to focus; "/" to re-focus the overall archive)
